Excellent Workaway!! Carlo, Federica and their two boys were amazing hosts. We spent a week volunteering with them on their Agritourismo and loved every minute of it. Our jobs included planting seedlings, pruning an olive orchard and some cleaning. We loved sharing meals with the family, such great food! Our room was so beautiful and we enjoyed… read more

We spent a great week with Diana, Standa and their two children. Our chores included planting onions and Lemon Balm seedlings, and we were glad to help start a new lean-to on the back of their house! We enjoyed our many conversations and learned so much about herbs from Diana. Their small town is a quiet place, but we enjoyed our evening walks.… read more

We spent a week with Jenny and Geoff and it was quite an experience. They are kind hosts and we enjoyed learning about Jewish culture from them. Our visit was during Passover so we were treated to their traditional celebrations. The work included helping out with cleaning the Airbnb, painting, doing animal chores, planting and moving wood. Jenny… read more

From the very first moment we met at the station, it has been a pleasure to host Jayn and Thomas.The deep laugh of Jayn, the caring gentleness of Thomas make everything easy; they devoted to our project to build a cabin around huge old windows, and left to themselves as I went away for4 days, managed to settle the frame for the future yoga studio!… read more

What a special and welcoming space Brigitte has created here! We were so fortunate to spend 3 weeks there working with her and other Workawayers on various projects. The work was very rewarding and never more than we were able to handle. We had lots of time to explore the beautiful Côte d’Azur, and Brigitte was very generous to take us on some… read more
